Episode Details

Francisco Aguirre, a Salvadoran immigrant who fled to the U.S. as a teen and has lived here for decades, faces another ICE check-in—this time with mounting fear and frustration. Already detained once and denied asylum for years, he questions why ICE keeps summoning him, especially when he’s already agreed to their terms. Accompanied by his pastor and surrounded by a supportive community, Aguirre braves the meeting knowing his U.S. citizen daughters depend on him—and that returning to El Salvador is unthinkable. He’s not fleeing, he says, but ICE’s repeated demands are causing unbearable stress for him and his family, turning what should be a routine process into a daily threat to his safety and peace of mind.
